# Force All Users To Sign Out
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using cookie-based authentication and you want to sign out all users
|
||||
(so that they have to re-authenticate), you need to invalidate all of the
|
||||
cookies.
|
||||
|
||||
Because the cookies live in the client's browser, you cannot simply clear them
|
||||
like you would with session-based authentication. Instead, you need to replace
|
||||
the session token used to create all those cookies.
|
||||
|
||||
First, get a new token:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ bundle exec rake secret
|
||||
538696c1399ff182486e09980ba915d098b8fb23a3ace42c3eea0ab51b18fdff7895cd620f32b263d10d25c2fdba16647f4d8632e9032eccef7406e1ad9cba09
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then, replace the current `secret_key_base` value with that new secret token
|
||||
[wherever it is
|
||||
stored](https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/Rails/Application.html#method-i-secret_key_base)
|
||||
in the production environment.
